Chapter 20
Sorry for the delayed update; my keyboard died days ago :'D

Grass, trees, and even the starry sky had disappeared to be replaced by a new, utterly foreign place.
The place they stepped on now wasn't even the village Koushirou knew.
"This place is definitely not our village." Said Koushiro, Kuina, and Zoro in their hearts.
Looking around, the place was filled with countless weapons.
The ground was dry, and the sky shone with a dark yellow light. In the distance was a giant cog wheel dangling in the sky.
This world was the world produced by Unlimited Blade Works.
Looking at the countless swords, Koushirou felt shocked.
Seeing one of those swords, he knew that they were extraordinary. Strangely he had never seen or heard of that sword before.
Even among them, there were swords far stronger than his Great Grade Sword! How could this not surprise him? If one of those swords were placed in the outside world, every great warrior would go crazy and want to get their hands on it.
"What is this place? And why are there so many high-quality swords lying around?" Koushirou looked at Vermillion tremblingly; he really wanted to get the answer.
He didn't care how he got to this strange place; he just wanted to know more about the scattered swords.
"Welcome to [Unlimited Blade Works], this is my private world." Vermillion gave the three people a welcoming greeting.
"Kuina, didn't you ask if I could use a technique as powerful as Musashi's? I will give you the answer."
*Zap!*
*Zap!*
"What's that?!" From a distance, Kuina saw swords one after another flying up into the sky.
The swords continued to increase, and now she didn't even know how many were flying in the sky.
The swords then flew towards the master who ordered them.
"Isana great festival!"
Suddenly the exact gigantic figure appeared behind Vermillion. Soon the giant turned into a sword which was then wielded by Vermillion.
*Slashes!*
*Boom!*
The sword energy collided with the thousands of swords flying above the sky.
The result of that strike resulted in a gale that whipped into the faces and hair of everyone present.
After the dust cleared, there was only chaos left.
"Little Kuina, now you should know the answer." Vermillion patted Kuina's head while chuckling.
Waving his hand, the world of swords instantly disappeared to be replaced by the starry night sky as before.
"Mr. Koushirou, please lead the way."
"Sir, no, Master Vermillion, you can also use techniques... same techniques as Master Miyamoto?!"
"Also, was it just now the sword world?" Koushirou asked in shock.
"The swords in that place are all fake." Vermillion waved her hand.
"Everything fake?" Koushirou's mouth widened.
The swords he had seen earlier had clearly looked real, but why had Vermillion said they were all fake?
With his experience, he was confident that all those swords were powerful swords and couldn't be fake ones!
"That was an illusion technique that can materialize the user's thoughts." Emiya said.
"Once the technique is activated, it will change the environment around us into a completely different world."
"The sword over there is indeed a fake, just a replica of a sword that the user of the technique has seen before." Emily explained.
"In other words, are all those swords the swords that Master Vermillion has seen before?" Koushirou asked.
"As expected, you are indeed a person to look up to, Master Vermillion." Koushirou said to the sword master in front of him.
"I'm glad you admire me, but this technique isn't my original, I just borrowed it from someone else."
"Sir, you don't need to be humble. Just being able to do that technique shows your worth." Koushirou shook his head, believing that Vermillion was the true owner of the Unlimited Blade Works.
As far as he knew, Musashi's sword technique could still be learned, but the technique Vermillion demonstrated just now could not.
"Well, up to you." Seeing Koushirou, who couldn't believe his words, Vermillion just shrugged. He wouldn't bother explaining this too much.
